been bewitched. Upon payment of an
other fee he will make known the witch,
usually selecting some old woman,
who is at once seized and borne off to be
tortured to death. There was recently a
case in which the shaman in HOochinoo
village accused an Indian workman at
Juneau of having bewitched sick man.
Having learned of the accusation, and
knowing well its consequences, the poor
fellow attempted to commit suicide by
stabbing himself. His life was saved
under the care of the surgeon on board
the United States revenue steamer.
Governor Swineford, upon hearing of
the affair, went to the village with an
Indian policeman. The shaman detied
him, and said if he were mQlested
his spirits would strike the governor
dead. Undaunted by this invocation, the
governor ordered him arrested, and in
vited the Indians present to come down
to Juneau for the purpose of having
proved to them that their medicine-man
was an impostor. Upon the appointed
day several hundred Indians put in an
appearance and witnessed the shaman's
head shorn of its sacred locks. After
his head had been closely shaved it was
covered with liberal coat of red paint.
So crestfallen was the great medicine
man that he openly acknowledged him
self an impostor and has never yet re-
turned to his village. The result has

THE PEABODY LETTER.

The publication few days since in these
columns of the facsimile of President
Peabody's letter is still the subject of much
comment. That he should have expressed
himself so unequivocally is characteristic of
the man and illustrative of the true Ameri-
can idea of acknowledging a good deed
promptly and to the point.
1t used to be considered question of pro-
priety to say kind word of the result of
treatment other than that prescribed by a
regular practitioner and the time was when
man using an advertised remedy did so
more or less surreptitiously. However, this
has happily given away to broader and
more liberal view of things, typitied in Mr..
Peabody's frank expression that he knows of
no valid reason why communication should
not be equally as hearty in one instance as
in the other.
Certainly this would appear fair in the face
of the fact that to speak well of the bridge
that carries one over has ever been of the
most popular of maxiIns. He was assured
hat the injury would Contine him to the
house for three weeks or more, yet in three
lays use of the Oil he was out and about his
duties as if nothing had happened. Surely
remedy that will so practically demonstrate
its efficacy and that has stood foremost, as
has st. Jacobs Oil, upward of ten years as
unapproachable for the eradication of pain,
of almost every character, is justly entitled
to rank as standard. A staple in fact and
as necessary in the household as the COM
modites of everyday use.
That many physicians prescribe it is as
srue as that many physicians use it, and it is
only those of the very old school who, true
to ancient doctrines, can see no good in it,
because it is made known to the world. Not
long since on1 of these dropped cOnfiden-
.ial note to friend requesting three bottles
be sent for his personal use immediately, as
without it his hands were simply no hanC
at all, but" continued he, "for Heaven.
sake don't say l said So" This is literally

celebration Of the peace established. In
the case where an Indian killed his squaw
at Juneau recently, a lawyer of that
place sought to have him set free by
writ of habeas corpus, on the ground that
the culprit had rendered the murdered
woman's family the customary. number
of blankets in payment for her murder.
The judge did not take that view of the
case.
q Potlatch signifies a gift, but is used
to designate a feast, at which the prin-
cipal feature is the presentation of gifts
to all the guests. When an Indian be-
comes wealthy he builds himself new
house. When this is finished he takes
all that he has remaining and invests it
in blankets, calicoes and similar goods.
He then invites his friends to a potlatch
or housewarming. After they have
Toasted and danced for a week the host
divides among his guests all of his worldly
possessions except his house and what
belongs to it. Instances have been known
where an Indian has thus given away
$4,000 worth of goods. The one who
gives away most becomes the leading
man of the tribe. This appears to be
something like practical communism.
In their dances each dancer repre-
sents some bird or animal, the cry and
actions of which he initiates. They
dance until exhausted and after rest
begin again.
These Indians are brave people, hav-
ing no fear of anything but witchcraft
and the supernatural. The Tinnehs, an
inland tribe, are tall, muscular people,
and are great hunters. They think it
cowardly to take any advantage of
